2014 Fantasy Football Running Back Rankings
In 2014 the running back position seems as top-heavy as it has been in recent memory. There are only about six to eight running backs worthy of a first round pick this year as running back committees limit the fantasy value of many of the otherwise talented running backs. This year instead of seeing a handful of new rookie starters we see them forced into timeshares. And while the position is indeed top heavy there are about 50 fantasy relevant backs who should provide some semblance of flex value depending on your league size. We still suggest a RB-RB strategy if possible and it may well be with players like Peyton Manning, Jimmy Graham, Calvin Johnson, Demaryius Thomas, Drew Brees and Dez Bryant all getting serious looks in first round of drafts.
Without further adieu here are our constantly updated running back rankings for the 2014 fantasy football season:
